Further more... the person who potentially passed the knife to person #17 may have already received it and then passed it on hot potato style. But this train of thought isn't super useful at this point.

Ozle, here's a question: If the Murderer is killed, are we informed that he was the Murderer?

I would like everyone to weigh in on whether my "claim your side of the table" idea is a good one or not. Eevee's come out against it, but I'm not sure where everyone else stands. I realize it's not going to magically find the murderer for us - but I think it's a good starting point at gathering information, in a manner that makes it unlikely for the town (even scum - even the murderer!) to lie.

I should say that based on my flavor paragraph, I know that the person in Seat 17 did not move when the lights went out.

I am fine with saying who is on what side.

yuma · « **Reply #55 on:** July 26, 2012, 01:34:45 pm »

I think that is a fair suggestion

Insomniac · « **Reply #56 on:** July 26, 2012, 01:35:10 pm »

I was fine with seat claiming as I already did it. So Obviously Im ok with side claiming

jotheonah · « **Reply #57 on:** July 26, 2012, 01:39:12 pm »

I could side claim.

As in, "did not get out of his seat?" Or as in, "did not lean way over towards Ozle?"

Seats 10 and 17 are awkwardly unique in that they are the only seats who could conceivably stab Ozle without having to get up.

I am fine with that too, but it does not help myself at all.

From my role PM: me and the person sit on my right are talking about people seating 22 and 23 when the room went dark. We are on the opposite side. Hopefully this is useful for some.

I have no idea, just that he "didn't move." Well, according to the mod, I'm "pretty sure." Anyway, I read it as the person in Seat 17 not reacting to the lights going off with surprise or anything. He may have indeed moved when the lights were actually off.

You can scumhunt instead of saying that too...Which leads me to my second point

Hey shark_bait how does it feel to know that your scumbuddy murdered Ozle?

Damn, I guess since you know the murderer already you've won. Congrats.

Ozle · « **Reply #62 on:** July 26, 2012, 01:46:54 pm »

Ozle read with interest the suspcion that he might have been the murderer, which fueled hopes inside of him that he might be alive! Because surely Ozle wouldn't murder himself, he LOVED himself! He tried to will his body to get up, but no joy, the gaping wound in the middle of his back made sure of that.

He knew of course though that he hadn't planned his party around any specific book, that would be plaguarising, and Ozle wasn't a plaguriser! (Although he was a suspected Plague carrier ironically, but he was over the worst of it, what with being dead and all).

Personally he was hoping for the Scooby Doo ending....

My friends, so much has happened! The onion soufflè that Ozle has served us was nothing short of atrocious. I would not blame any of you for wishing him ill after being forced to palate that. However, I must believe that the actions and events of this night were not the act of a newly disgruntled dinner guest, but indeed were premeditated by someone who has held a grudge for some time.

FoS: Galzria for forgetting that the souffle had not yet been served by the time Ozle was dead.

Quote from: Galzria on July 26, 2012, 01:16:49 pm

Please feel free to add to this list of things we know:

Happy to do so. My edits are in bold. I suggest anyone else who updates this collective-knowledge-list follow this convention, so we can keep track of who adds what.

---

Ozle was wealthy - indeed the richest in the land.
Ozle loved to read (although, to be frank, I suspect this is untrue. He was much to important to himself to waste time on books)
We were all invited to dinner, and with the exception of Axxle, arrived on time.
Ozle suspected all of us of being out to get him.
One of the people invited is a man from a far off land, who said he was interested in Ozle's family history.
Ozle has a Crazy Uncle Ungar.
Between the main course and the dessert souffle, all of the lights went out.
After the lights went out, a couple of chairs were heard to move.
After the chairs moved, there was a bonechilling howl.
After the howl, Ozle was killed by a stab wound in the back.
The lights did not come back on for a while after Ozle was stabbed (long enough for his overly dramatic death throes to finish).
When the lights came on, Ozle was found dead with a bloody knife in the hand of seat 17.

Good thing plague didn't show up. There wouldn't have been enough chairs.

It would take a hell of an accident to put that size wound in the back of someone who didn't have their back to you without realising it. That or some sort of short term memory loss or other mind numbing condition he supposed! But as medical science was pretty underfunded in Ozle's province (Most of the tax money went on vanity projects) then Ozle would have no idea about that, especially as the murderer did it from behind!

For anybody reading this that isnt actually playing, there is a QT set up where you can play along with the guess the Murderer section, and general shennanigans! PM me for details

Insomniac · « **Reply #66 on:** July 26, 2012, 02:38:10 pm »

Eevee hows it feel to be in the murderers seat AND scum?

Eevee · « **Reply #67 on:** July 26, 2012, 02:42:39 pm »

By the way, are we thinking we have two scum teams or just one? The howl strongly suggests we are dealing with werewolves at least. With 14 players, two scum teams would mean teams of two or some serious power roles for town, correct?

The murderer could be of any alignment, so I'm assuming solving the crime wont help us get any closer to finding mafia. It would actually be in our best interest to try to solve the crime on our own (because thats not a team win but a personal one, no point in posting your findings and helping others solve it) and just post "normal" mafia stuff here, but I do agree I'm building interest in actually being part of something I so much love to read.

Oh, I'm assuming the foreign guy knows who he is and the people who moved, know who they are and why they did it too. I'm guessing the murderer isnt the only with something to hide though (regarding the murder mystery, not the mafia game I mean), thats how Christie usually plays it at least.

I'm neither. I sort of wish I was the murderer though, would be an interesting role to play.

Which is why I think looking for the murderer is pointless.

Lets play for towns wincon!
How many people would actively not want to find the murderer? I posit that the answer to that question is exactly one.

Clearly you haven't read Murder on the Orient Express.

Uh... I guess there's not a random vote stage.

I'm for side claiming.

Robz888 · « **Reply #70 on:** July 26, 2012, 03:21:33 pm »

I am just going to go ahead and side claim. I am on the right side of the table (Ozle's left).

I was hoping for an actual seat claim. but now that you point it out.

Captain_Frisk as scum why are you opposed to side claiming too much info for the town to have?
